SHORAD (Short-Range Air Defense)

Northrop Grumman’s SHORAD capabilities protect U.S. and allied forces from a wide range of manned and unmanned air and missile threats. Our capabilities utilize sensors, weapons, and command control to acquire, track, verify, engage and defeat incoming threats.

Our SHORAD components provide the command and control (C2) and situational awareness to respond to diverse threats, 24/7, with scalable solutions aiding decision-making, making responses faster and more effective. Our solutions build upon existing Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) architecture to afford a clear path to integrate a variety of sensors and solutions to defeat current and future threats.
